The Village of Lombard encourages businesses to pursue recycling. This is advantageous to businesses in that it lessens the volume of refuse; and recycling fees are lower than refuse fees. 

Businesses must only use collection companies that are licensed to operate in the Village.  These businesses are insured and bonded to protect against damage to Village streets and facilities. The following companies hold current licenses at this time:

Allied Waste Services  (708) 345-7050
Flood Brothers Disposal Company  (630) 261-0400
Waste Management  (800) 796-9696

If you would rather not have collection service at your business there are drop-off alternatives available. The DuPage County Recycling Guide is a compilation of many area businesses that accept various items for recycling, including things such as batteries, books, electronics, paint, etc. There are also two locations that accept typical recyclables.
